Designs and manufactures personal, professional, contract, and entertainment helicopter and airplane flight simulators. In 1995 and 1997 Simpkins Design Group, Inc. (DBA FLYIT Simulators) was awarded Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) phase one and two contracts to design and develop a research combat helicopter simulator for the US Army Aero Medical Lab at Fort Rucker.
In 2000 FLYIT Simulators, Inc. decided to pursue phase three of the SBIR contract which was to commercialize what we learned from the project. This was an affordable very hi-fidelity FAA approved helicopter simulator. The simulator was met with so much enthusiasm by the flight training industry that we decided to leave the consulting business and continue to develop and manufacture flight simulators full time.

Report
Designs and manufactures personal, professional, contract, and entertainment helicopter and airplane flight simulators. Our FLYIT Simulator has been an excellent and cost efficient training aid. Our pilots instrument skills and confidence have improved dramatically.
We've integrated the same terrain mapping system we use in our aircraft (Honeywell Mark 21) into this simulator and it has enabled us to significantly reduce the risks inherent with flight operations in a mountainous environment.We have been using the FLYIT Helicopter Simulator for 8 months now in our training programs.
